5 times WWE Superstars challenged top athletes to a match

#3. WWE Superstar Drew McIntyre challenged Andy Murray

Drew McIntyre and Andy Murray

Andy Murray is a tennis legend, although he is still active. He has also been a WWE fan since childhood.

Nearly two years ago, Murray spoke about his childhood wrestling antics with his brother on Amazon Prime, which caught the attention of his compatriot WWE Superstar Drew McIntyre. The Scottish Warrior was quick to comment in a tweet, issuing a challenge to the tennis player.

"My brother and I did the exact same thing growing up in Scotland but if Andy Murray wants to come to my court, I can show him it’s a whole different game."

The idea of a match between the two Scots seemed to excite the fans, as The Scottish Sun reported. One fan even suggested the two should face each other in an iron man match.

Although Murray and McIntyre were once the top guys in their businesses, they have both suffered a dip in form and are now fighting to get back to the top of their respective fields.

While it is unlikely that the tennis player and WWE Superstar will cross paths soon, a fight down the road would be exciting to watch.
